CHIPOTLE LIME MARINATED GRILLED PORK CHOPS OR TENDERLOIN
Recipe from package of pork chops.Prep time does not include marinating time. You can alternately use dried chipotle, just rehydrate in hot water for about 15 mins and then chop. I actually like this better as a marinade for pork tenderloin.

MARINATED PORK TENDERLOIN WITH HONEY, LIME AND CHIPOTLE
Steps:
- Put the orange juice, lime juice, zest, honey, salt, garlic powder, cumin, oregano, chipotles and adobo in a blender or large food processor, and pulse a few times to make sure it's well blended. Put the tenderloin in a large zip lock bag and pour in about half of the marinade. Make sure the pork is completely surrounded by marinade by removing as much air as possible from the bag, then put it in the fridge to marinate for at least 2 hours, up to 24. Put the remaining marinade in a sealed container in the fridge. Remove the tenderloin and reserved marinade about 30 minutes before you're ready to cook it and allow it to come to room temperature. Preheat the oven to 425°F (225°C). Heat the oil in a cast iron (or oven safe) skillet over medium high heat. Place the tenderloin in the skillet and sear on all sides; about 2 - 3 minutes per side, then place the skillet in the oven and continue to roast the tenderloin for about 15 more minutes. Remove the tenderloin from the skillet to a plate, and cover with a foil tent while you make the sauce. Put the skillet (with juices in it) back over a high flame, and pour in the reserved marinade. Stir and cook until the sauce thickens. After letting the tenderloin rest for about 10 minutes under the foil, place it on a cutting board and slice into medallions. Serve topped with the sauce and sprinkled with chopped cilantro.
Tips:
- To save time, use a food processor to thinly slice the pork tenderloin.
- If you don't have a food processor, you can thinly slice the pork tenderloin by hand using a sharp knife.
- Make sure to marinate the pork tenderloin for at least 30 minutes, but no longer than 24 hours.
- If you're using wooden skewers, be sure to soak them in water for at least 30 minutes before using them.
- To prevent the pork tenderloin from drying out, baste it with the marinade every few minutes while grilling.
- Serve the pork tenderloin with your favorite sides, such as rice, potatoes, or vegetables.
Conclusion:
Lime marinated pork tenderloin is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. The marinade infuses the pork with a bright and citrusy flavor, while the grilling process creates a tender and juicy interior. Whether you're serving it at a backyard barbecue or a special occasion dinner, this dish is sure to be a hit.
